The Department of Energy (DOE) awarded a $5,096,390 Formula Grant to the Nevada Governor's Office of Energy under the "Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Information Dissemination, Outreach, Training and Technical Analysis/Assistance" program (CFDA 81.117). The grant, which runs from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025, supports the implementation and enforcement of the 2021 and 2024 International Energy Conservation Codes (IECC) for residential and commercial buildings across Nevada.
